Read Next – Intro

Welcome to Read Next. These six independent Spanish stories are designed for learners who have completed Start Here or already know some basic Spanish. You will revisit familiar language and meet new words in supported A1 reading practice.

Your Reading Routine

  1. Prepare vocabulary with the definitions and bilingual examples. Reveal the English meaning as needed.
  2. Read the supported short story. Follow the glossary links and reread at your own pace.
  3. Complete matching, word-ordering, and comprehension activities. Check your answers against the story.
  4. Continue with the complete reading for more detail, using its glossary for support.
  5. Listen to the corresponding full podcast episode.

Focus on comprehension and recognition. You do not need to write long answers, explain grammar, or understand every unfamiliar word to continue.

Each lesson includes the original full podcast episode. It contains additional material and may differ from the supported short reading.

Take breaks, revisit stories, and enjoy the process. Six stories provide useful practice, and your progress will depend on continued reading and listening.
